RE: RE: BPCS-L Digest, Vol 3, Issue 167/ re: Forecasting

MRP100 is a standard SSA GT program.  It allows you to manually key in a
forecast that MPS and MRP will use for scheduling depending upon the
level of the item.

It will not give you the seasonality and trends that the Forecasting
product will.

Talking about the standard BPCS forecasting module right now.  Haven't
heard of MRP 100 Forecast.  Is that an SSA-GT product, or another
vendor's
add-on?

RFolsome:
Are you talking about the MRP 100 Forecast  or are you talking about the
Forecasting Module?  We use the MRP Forecast for our 2 plants and
numerous warehouses, and we have just started using the Forecast Module,
so we can see Seasonality and period usages. If you need more
information on the MRP 100 Forecast I would be glad to walk you through
it, if you would like to call.
Best of Luck

subject: [BPCS-L] ACP - Invoice Entry problem.

While one of our users was entering an Invoice, we lost communication on
the session and the Invoice went on a "Pending" status. SSA's advice on
the recovery for this Invoice is to use Option 15= Recovery/Restart to
recover the Invoice and then to complete the Invoice immediately.



Our Systems Owner does not want to make use of this procedure and rather
suggest that the Invoice gets deleted and re-entered. His reason: The
Purchase Order does not gets updated as well as not all fields populate
to
the GL as it should.



Any Comments on this, I'd like to prove him wrong as I've been using F15
all the time.



Regards,

Kobie Jooste

I agree with SSA's recommendation.  F15 was created just for this
purpose.

When you delete the invoice you are not sure of what has been processed.

Does anyone know a person or firm in the mid-atlantic region that does
training on the forecasting module?  We are currently on BPCS 6.1.01.
We've never used the forecasting module, and have four users who would
like
more than what they can get out of the manual.  Thanks for any info.
